Chapter 1789: Chapter 1789: Fingers Pinched Painfully
"I’m here to see if you’re doing well. The ring is in my hand, I’ll find a way to help you escape."
Jian Yufei became a bit more awake.
They all tacitly avoided mentioning Mo Lan.
"Junqi is here too; I’ve been with him these past few days."
Ruan Tianling showed no sign of surprise, "Have you seen his face?"
Jian Yufei suddenly realized, "You know him?"
At this point, Ruan Tianling had no need to hide it anymore.
"Yes, in that black USB drive, there’s a video about him. I’ve known about his existence for a long time."
"You knew on the ship?"
"Yes."
Jian Yufei frowned, "Why didn’t you tell me?!"
"I was afraid if you knew, you’d be sad and upset, and do something reckless. I thought I could find a way to rescue him, but I failed."
Jian Yufei suddenly gave a bitter smile. If he had told her earlier, she wouldn’t have impulsively confronted Nangong Xu.
However, she’s satisfied with this outcome. At least she’s now with Junqi, and she can do everything she can to let her child live well.
"Wait a minute." Jian Yufei quickly realized the information in his words, "You said you failed. When did you try to rescue Junqi?"
Ruan Tianling leaned to her ear and whispered a few words.
Jian Yufei’s eyes widened in shock.
He said that he’s... Anan!
Jian Yufei’s feelings were incredibly mixed at that moment.
She was happy, angry, and also embarrassed.
Happy that he had always been by her side, never truly leaving her. Angry that he kept her in the dark, saying nothing.
Embarrassed that during that time, her lifeless, despondent state was seen by him.
Ah, so embarrassing!
Jian Yufei pinched his waist hard, venting her dissatisfaction.
Ruan Tianling, seeing she wasn’t angry, couldn’t help but give a deep smile, "Pinch more if you want, I’m tough-skinned."
Jian Yufei pinched him a few more times with force; his waist was all muscle, not an ounce of extra fat.
Instead of hurting him, she pinched her own fingers in pain.
Jian Yufei, annoyed, hit his chest hard with her forehead.
Ruan Tianling hugged her tightly, asking hoarsely, "How have you been lately?"
Jian Yufei wanted to tell the truth, but changed her words at the last moment, "I’ve been doing well. Just before coming over, I was cooking for Junqi. You wouldn’t believe how much he can eat; he eats anything you give him."
Ruan Tianling didn’t laugh.
He had watched that video and naturally knew how hard his child had it.
His food had to be fought for, which is why he loved to eat so much.
Ruan Tianling hid his emotions well, "Just wait a little longer; I’ll find a way to get you out."
"Yes, I know." She always believed in him, never doubting.
"And also, find an opportunity to look clearly at his face."
Jian Yufei raised her head, "Why? You suspect he’s not?"
"I’m afraid Nangong Xu is deliberately confusing us," Ruan Tianling said in a low tone. "It’s best to be sure, although I believe he’s our child, better safe than sorry."
Jian Yufei nodded, "I understand. But no matter whether he is our child or not, I like him and want to take him away from here."
After spending these days together, she genuinely fell in love with the child.
Ruan Tianling nodded, "I’ll rescue him."
He’s just a child, and it would be different if they knew about his existence.
